Home Builders Association of Southeastern Michigan (HBA) in Bingham Farms has opened its 2026 edition of Parade of Homes and named its blue-ribbon winners.
Sponsored by Lake Michigan Credit Union, the 37th annual exhibition of new model homes located across southeast Michigan runs through June 30.
As part of the Parade of Homes program, architects and industry experts judge the homes and award blue ribbons in price-related categories. The judges make their decisions based on a combination of factors including innovation, aesthetic appeal, and value for the price.
Judges for this year’s program were Lonny S. Zimmerman of Siegal/Tuomaala Associates, Benedetto Tiseo of Tiseo Architects Inc., Michael J. Gordon of Moiseev/Gordon Associates, and Marty Peltier, chief growth officer and senior vice president of Lake Michigan Credit Union.
“Parade of Homes provides potential homebuyers a unique opportunity to see the area’s finest newly built homes,” says Forrest M. Wall, CEO of HBA. “The homes are available to view in person, based on the hours shown for each individual home and on the program’s website at ParadeHBA.com.”
The blue-ribbon winning homes, based on price of model as shown, are:
Included in the Parade of Homes are townhomes, condominiums, and single-family homes, attainable housing, and estate-sized homes. The program provides an opportunity to see the latest trends in energy efficiency and green building, architecture, interior design, amenities, and materials.
The 37 models range in price from the upper $200,000s to nearly $2.3 million.
The homes are built by 16 different builders, all members of HBA. The Parade of Homes includes eight attached townhomes or condominiums and one detached condominium. Nine of the homes are under construction or pre-construction, giving potential home buyers the opportunity to work with the builder from the beginning of construction. Homes are located in 34 different communities.
The homes are featured in a free magazine available at Lake Michigan Credit Union branches in southeast Michigan and at each of the participating homes. The Parade of Homes website features the blue-ribbon winning homes and all the 2026 Parade of Homes models, including photos, features, pricing, location and hours. It will be available for viewing for a full year at ParadeHBA.com.
It was never our intention to build a home and it was just curiosity that made us stop in and look. After meeting and talking with Brooks Belhart we decided we would build! He was ALWAYS available to answer any question almost immediately and was very knowledgeable about the various models. He made the process completely stress free! We absolutely LOVE our house! It was a great experience initially working with Malcolm. He always kept us informed. Once the house was turned over to Jem to complete, again the process was awesome. I can't even express how helpful Jem has been. Even after moving in both Jem and Brooks have gone out of their way to answer any questions we still have and immediately try to resolve any concerns. Words alone cannot express how happy we are with our home and that is because of the personal attention from both Brooks and Jem.
